Last Year Was Weird (Vol. 3) is the fourth extended play as well as the third and final in a trilogy by Australian singer and rapper Tkay Maidza. It was released on 9 July 2021 by 4AD.
At the ARIA Music Awards of 2021, the EP won Best Soul/R&B Release.
Reception Cyclone Wehner from Music Feeds said "Last Year Was Weird (Vol. 3) is about Maidza blossoming as a young black woman as much as affirming her auteur status" and called the volume her most "adventurous and avant-garde volume yet".
MTV said “Last Year Was Weird, Vol. 3 is nowhere near as aggressive or as explosive as its predecessors, and you notice it immediately.” Saying “Kim” is “Tkay Maidza at her most unhinged, her most unrelenting and, ultimately, her best.”
